You don't seem happy to stand corrected, if I'm honest.

 , thank you too. If the GAA could sync the official rulebook with the referees handbook, that would make the island happier, not just me

A rule not in a rule book..
Anyway, to restate the main point. A co commentator not knowing this. How have viewers a chance.

Comer and Finnerty both had good games for Galway and Walsh made a telling impact from the bench.Galway to me have better forwards and that helped them get  over the line.Could they be getting players back at the right time?

Of the starting teams today I said earlier I felt Mayo had the better forwards but Galway will have Walsh and Tierney to come into team who will be serious additions. Cillian McDaid if fit around the middle will be another big plus. Maher off the bench was every efficient and moved the ball well.

Sorry is overused. Sometimes when I'm browsing around the isles of the supermarket, people just say sorry if they are coming at you and you just move sidewards. Or sometimes when I'm coming in the doors of a supermarket and someone else is coming out, they say sorry. What are you sorry for? ALso the word stunning. I see people saying people are stunning on facebook and they're far from it.

I didn't see the game but I see Mayo yet again lost to the referee. When will the GAA do something about this? If its wasn't for bad referees Mayo would be unbeaten since 1884.

Cavan has had the same problem for the same length of time -1! (Mayo 1951, Cavan 1952)

Apologies if mentioned before

But TSG said  this  was the first ever Munster football final to be  played in Ennis?

Is that true ?

Yes. Anytime Clare played Kerry or Cork in Munster final usually played in the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick.
